Sweet 16 Red Carpet Party Ideas

Many teenagers would love to have a Hollywood Red Carpet theme party.


Most teen girls want their Sweet 16 parties to be memorable and fabulous. In fact, many parents will spend a lot of cash to ensure their daughters' festivities are perfect. One common party theme is the Red Carpet theme, which is inspired by Hollywood starlets. To evoke an authentic sense of glamor and glitz, there are many details to include in your party plans. Does this Spark an idea?


Invitations


The Red Carpet Sweet 16 event is usually held in a private party room or rented club, and the party invitations will set the tone for the entire celebration. Decide what type of party attire your daughter wants, such as old Hollywood glamor or modern cocktail dresses, and inform the guests of the dress code in the invitation. Some people send the invitations on shiny gold or silver paper, while others choose a gossip magazine layout with a tabloid headline.


Decorations


At this type of party, both the outside entrance and the actual party room require decorations. Rent a red carpet runner that starts at the street or parking lot and goes to the event entrance. Use mini strobe lights to simulate the flash of cameras or hire a few actors to act as paparazzi. Hire a DJ to provide loud, high-energy music, which will also help set the tone of an exciting A-lister event. The party room can be decorated with elegant black-and-white tablecloths, votive centerpieces and simple flower arrangements, or you can use gold and silver colors. As an added touch of Hollywood decor, hang several large photos of the guest of honor, along with glittery gold stars hanging from the ceiling.


Food and Drink


If you have the budget, hire roaming waiters to serve your Hollywood drinks and hors d'oeuvres. Because the party guests are under-age, replace authentic drinks with mocktails. For example, serve sparkling cider in champagne glasses and virgin martinis. Serve teen-friendly finger foods, such as sushi bites, mozzarella sticks and meatballs. Some parents provide a chocolate fountain and chocolate-covered strawberries as well.


Party Favors


Most of the red carpet events in Hollywood aren't complete without guest gift bags, and your party should have them too. Give your guests copies of the paparazzi photos, picture frames or water bottles or candy bars with customized wrappers. Other gift ideas include personalized key chains or miniature boutique-brand soaps or candles.
